FAQs
Is this paint suitable for kitchens and bathrooms?

Can I use this on exterior walls?
No, this product is specifically formulated for interior walls and ceilings.
How many coats are typically required?
While it depends on the substrate color and condition, two coats are generally recommended for full coverage and depth of color.
Does the marble content make the paint rough to the touch?
The crushed marble provides a sophisticated texture that feels refined and luxurious rather than overly gritty.

How should I clean my brushes after use?
As it is a water-based paint, you can clean your tools easily using warm, soapy water immediately after application.
Troubleshooting
Uneven texture finish
Ensure you are using a consistent roller pressure and avoid over-working the paint in one area, as this can affect the distribution of the marble particles.
Poor paint adhesion
Verify that the surface was properly cleaned and degreased; if painting over non-porous or shiny surfaces, sanding is necessary for a mechanical bond.
Visible roller marks
Use a high-quality medium-pile roller and ensure you 'lay off' the paint in one direction for a uniform appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before application, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free of loose paint, dust, or grease. If painting over glossy surfaces, lightly sand the area to improve adhesion. For raw or porous plaster, use a suitable primer to seal the surface before applying the emulsion. Apply the paint using a roller or brush in even strokes to maintain consistent texture. For care, avoid harsh chemical cleaners; a soft cloth with mild soapy water is sufficient for wiping down surfaces to maintain the finish over time.
